  1. Here it is and guess what once again, Well it sucks sorry

     

    What I wanted was for her to push the door open as she steps out then pull the door back closer to her again when she got in her final place. To show a slight gain in comfort but not really be welcoming.

     

    What i got was

     

    [attachmentid=23006]

    2_08_19_take.mov

  2. I see what you are saying now. I did not think that he grabbed the glue in that shot. Maybe if we change woot to trying to go for the glue in that shot, but not getting it since woot is a secondary in that shot it does not look like much of a change. I will have the WiP up for this in the morning maybe that will help clear this up.

     

    Just a thought,

  3. This then only sequence i have seen that will have this naming format. But for all of the Video files you will need to use 2_07_###.mov you need to have three numbers after the under score because there are so many scenes in this sequence.

     

     

    If you only use 2 numbers the will list like this.

     

    2_07_01

    2_07_101

    2_07_21

     

    With 3 numbers they will list like this

     

    2_07_001

    2_07_021

    2_07_101

     

     

    There is not need to change anything you have uploaded.

     

    Thank you

  4. There is a lot compression and decompression the way we are doing this now to make the videos fit online. I made these files a little small and that maybe what is causing that. These are not the files the we will be using for the final movie though. We will be rendering out the whole movie into .tga then piecing it together. So the "garbaged & smushed up" will be fixed then. I have just been playing around with ways to compress files for online use and i would not say I'm all that good at it at this point. But they are good enough to preview what we have done to this point.

     

     

    At this time the output format is

     

    Size:

    720 X 405

     

    Type:

    Quick time

     

    Compression:

    MPEG-4 Video

     

    Name:

    #_##_##-take or

    (act)_(seg)_(scene)-take.mov

  5. Hello all,

     

    This post will be on how to name your video file for SVN up load.

     

    Here is the format we are using.

     

    Act# 
    Seq## (sequences) 
    1_01.prj (prj → sequence) 
    Shared Data (reusable inside sequence) 
    Actions 
    1_01 tinman laughing.act 
    Models 
    1_01 candle.mdl 
    Sc## (scenes) 
    1_01_001.cho (cho → scene) 
    1_01_001.prj (to easily save/load scene) 
    Movies 
    1_01_001.mov (animatic) 
    1_01_001-take.mov 
    Test Frames 
    1_01_001 F0001.tga 
    Models (only used in this scene) 
    1_01_001 chair.mdl 
    Actions (only used in this scene) 
    1_01_001 tinman a.act 
    

     

    for uploading a movie file you need to name the file #_##_##-take.mov or (act)_(seg)_(scene)-take.mov

     

    this should be in the movies folder of your scene. The movie file you want to keep should always be named this way. Because we will be building one large project file that will look for those names and if there are any changes to that file the project file will reload the movie if it is listed under the same name. So if you make changes to the movie file and uplaod it under #_##_##-take1.mov the Final project file will not see any changes to the one named #_##_##-take.mov and leave the older animation in.

     

     

    Thank you
